He Knew Ii All.

[Rockland Courier-Gazette.l


A wel[known Boston drummer, on a re-
cent trip to this city, brought his wife with
him to show her the sights. He took her to
the quarries and as natural consequence
the conversation turned to the manufacture
OF the rock into lime. He was MT very sure
Of his ground, but rather than appear ignor-
ant he proceeded to describe the process of
manufacture something as follows:
me rock is taken from the quarry and put
into the kilns where it is subjected to intense
heat until it melts. 1t is then run out and
allowed to cool in sheets. The sheets are
broken up intd1umps, barreled and sold as
lump lime" 80
The lady was deeply interested; so much
SO that on their return to the hotel she made
the remark in the presence of a goodly com
pany that her husband had told her so
much about melting the limestone and run
ming 1t on in molten sheets" that she wanted
to see it. An explanation followed, and that
drummer knows more about the lime bust
ness than he did.

A Commendable Organization

A Commendable Organization.
REV. D. w. CLARK,
Dear Sr-From the beginning of
your ministry here I noted with the
greatest pleasure your interest in behalf
of the young men OF Hillsboro. The
Young Mems League is wise and
timely organization. I wish it and your
connection with it every measure Of
success. am glad above all things you
do not make it sectarian. When we
were in the Union Army our chief pride
was not that we were from Ohio or
Indiana or any other State, but that we
were American citizens fighting for a
common goal. Soft seems to me it is
an extremely happy sentiment and prin-
ciple that though we love our respective
church, yet we are followers of one
leader in a common cause. The little
mite I enclose you TO assist in building
the "annex"" is money paid blythe Gov
ernment to me as reward for faithful
service during the war of the rebellion.
I can devote it to no better purpose. Go
on in the good work and make much OF
the young men. Respectfully,
f. CARSON.
